Actually I would call eating a diet so unhealthy that there is almost a good chance that doctors will need to cut your chest open, pull your rib cage apart, pull an artery out of you leg and sew it onto your heart to save your life. now that's extreme. And that's only one of the effects of eating meat. There is also cancer, diabetes, osteoporosis, and many more lesser known malady's waiting for you based on your dietary choices. I don't get how a documentary which features experts in the field of nutrition and clinical research which shows that a plant based diet is the healthy diet for humans can be called "extreme". It's strange, I meet people all the time who tell me their parents are diabetic or had a heart attack, yet they insist on continuing to eat meat. Even when they know that the same fate is awaiting them they still want to put little pieces of dead animal carcass into their body's. amazing
